Potential Payout Changes with HF 19 Launch

That is interesting. I haven't reached a level where the vote slider has appeared, so I hadn't given any thought to that side of the equation.

Is there any benefit to the voter in reducing the vote power like that?

Keep it real @ionlysaymeep

It's just that it lowers the rate of using up your voting power. That means you can spread more around to more posts or comments. But each vote is then worth less. Some folks go crazy and set all their votes to 1%. But that means they would have to vote 400 times a day to use all their vote power. And they don't. So they just leave unused voting power in the payout pool, rather than distributing it around.

Ah. Got ya.
